Actually my Tacoma is a lot of fun and the driving tends to be more care free/worry free. The last stalling episode I had in the Raptor was pretty scary. I was making a left hand turn on a green light at a busy intersection. The truck crappped out at the worst possible time...almost got t-***** by a bigger vehicle. Ford said they will look into it when I take it in but based on what I've read in the forum this tends to be a no-fix issue because it is never observed by the dealership and no CEL codes reveal it. The Raptor is no longer my daily driver.

No mods as of yet except for some additional lighting, new floor mats, leather center console, and SE wheels with Nitto's.
I bought the truck from Pugmire Ford in Carrolton GA which is the servicing dealership. They are pretty good so far, slow, but honest.

Wow, sorry for the troubles, I've got 3.5k on mine so far and haven't had one issue besides the bumper being installed crooked.

Let me guess...the back bumper has a huge gap on one side and kisses the body on the other? I've got that but haven't bothered...

Would you believe this is just now being addressed by Ford! It's going in today for a new mirror housing but since the mirror issue I am now dealing with driveline clunk and stalling. I have less than 4000 miles on this truck and it has seen more shop time than my 2011 Tacoma with 55000 miles.

I'm glad you're getting your dealer involved, Jay9722. My offer to assist still stands; if you need me to step in and help, just send a PM my way.

Thanks for the assist. We are just now in the "fix it" stage so they haven't had the chance to drop the ball yet. I will reach out to you if things get complicated. Thanks again!

Just seeing this for the first time.
The pics are not meant to document the problem, but rather to verify that the mirror is in fact the Stock mirror and not some replacement pos. When my rear window was replaced, for a short, under warranty, I took the pics and they specifically asked that I get a clear picture of the logo on the bottom corners. GL
